NFC West opponents had originally been slated to meet in primetime on Oct. 21

The 1-4 San Francisco 49ers have been knocked off the Sunday Night Football marquee, as first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Week 7, Oct. 21, the 4-1 Bengals and 5-0 Chiefs are being flexed to Sunday night, per source. Rams-49ers, which was scheduled for that night, will be moved to 4:25 pm. So it’ll be two straight Sunday night games for Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. Bengals lone SNF appearance.
